Thank you jwhop!! There seems to be a difference in the year count but it all means the same thing . Here`s an article Chahldean posted in the Astro forum on this Lunar Eclipse and Solstice and thought you & all would enjoy.
Bright Blessings for a happy and prosperous Yule/Winter Solstice.
This year's historic Winter Solstice is so powerful and auspicious that it's beyond anything ever experienced in recorded history.
It is so potentially earth shaking that many historians and Spiritual scholars are suggesting that the modern interpretations of the ancient Mayan calendar may be wrong and that tomorrow, 12/21/2010 is the true "12/12/2012"; but it's not the end of the world. It's the beginning!
Creating a Cosmic Masterpiece:
By the Numbers:
Numerology is the science and spirituality behind numbers. The effect numbers have on our planet as well as the human psyche are specific, profound and predictable.
The date 12/21/2010 is a universal triple 3 day or 3/3/3 (because 1+2=3 the numbers 12, 21 and 2010 all add up to #3 in numerology). This is 3 cubed. This date represents the cosmic, or holy trinity times 3. 3 is the number of creation and expansion. When you cube the number 3 you intensify the creative/expansive energies of root number 3 to a vast cosmic level. Triple 3 days are not that uncommon. Every 10 years there are 8 of them but because it is also the Winter Solstice (The beginning of a new solar cycle) as well as a Lunar Eclipse this numerology will bring about a powerful rebirth of consciousness on planet earth the likes of which we've never seen before. This new period of consciousness expansion begins tomorrow, and continue throughout 2012 and beyond!
By the Stars:
This years winter Solstice begins with a powerful total lunar eclipse which peaks on the full moon at 3:13 AM EDT. This powerful sun/moon opposition straddles the cusps of Sagittarius/Capricorn and Gemini/Cancer respectively and creates a powerful vibration for reawakening and renewal. Lunar eclipses exalts the power of the full moon by bringing the hidden aspects of the psyche to light (as symbolized by the moon passing through the Earth's shadow). This coupled with the Winter Solstice at 6:39 PM EDT will bring about a solar rebirth based upon the powerful, "feminine" lunar vibrations. There are also a plethora of Lunar aspects coinciding, as well as a Mercury/Neptune Trine to add to the over all flavor of this historic day. Over all it will bring new understandings of the hidden nature of the cosmos to light, heralding a new age based upon wisdom, compassion and love.
What it all means:
Basically we will all be amped up energetically depending upon our individual paths. New beginnings come at the expense of old endings so as less healthy, or even destructive patterns end, new empowering ones begin. Personally we will all have new consciousness and insight to draw upon if we choose it. We will have greater ability to tap into universal power to consciously create our lives and discover our lives' purpose.
On a global level a rebirth of consciousness will begin allowing more feminine energy to balance the current systems of thought and Government with insight, intuition and compassion. This could even mark the beginning of the fall of the outdated, greed and fear based "patriarchal" thinking which has plagued our planet for thousands of years. Though the initial effects of 12/21/2010 may not be noticed immediately (except possibly for the global upheaval that new thinking inevitably brings), the next several years should see some important changes in national and global policies which will eventually result in a shift toward more balanced, fair and conscious systems of government.
Tapping into the Power:
Fasting, or cleansing diet from now through tomorrow will make you more receptive to the energies.
Try to participate in a Solstice ritual that resonates with your Spiritual or cultural beliefs. There are many such happenings the next couple of days to choose from.
Try this meditation, channeled through Spirit but heavily inspired by a breathing exercise I learned from Yoga instructor Allison Sinatra, combined with elements of a meditation shared with us from the chief Shaman of Machu Picchu: Kucho (special thanks to Yoga Instructor and Shaman Debi Medeski for sharing it with us):
1. Get relaxed and comfortable
2. Do alternate breathing by first closing off your right nostril, exhale through your left nostril, then inhale through your left, then close off your left nostril and repeat the same breath through your right side of nose starting with the exhale. Continue alternating your breathing like this for 3-5 minutes while incorporating the following visualization technique. When you inhale through the left side imagine that you are inhaling silver light, and when you inhale through the right nostril imagine that you are inhaling gold light (silver represents the moon, gold represents the sun). This breath will balance those polarities and attune you to the power of the eclipse and Solstice energies while balancing those forces. (you can do this part of the meditation for longer if you want. you can make step 2 the totality of your meditation and/or you can repeat this step several times during the day to re-connect with the energies and keep you connected)
3. Visualize an eagle (representing spiritual re-birth and illumination) flying toward you and landing right in front of you. Allow this eagle to shape-shift into an Angel if you like (you can use archangel Gabriel if you choose, the Angel that blows the trumpet heralding a new age, or any Angelic being of your choice. You can also allow the Eagle to remain as an Eagle, or turn into a Condor). Let this eagle, or Angel be your ally for this entire process.
4. Visualize Violet light (you can use blue or white light as well depending upon what Spirit gives you) coming down from the cosmos and into the top of your head. See/feel this light going down through your center line and being "pulled" by the magnetic earth light deep in the heart of mother earth. Also see this light spread outward from your body in all directions simultaneously. Allow your physical and spiritual bodies to be the channel for this universal light. Do this for as long as you desire (10 minutes to several hours). Feel the energies and changes in your body, mind and soul as well as the changes in the world around you. This light you are channeling and sending into the earth as well as to the world around you is the violet light of the "7th Ray", the light energy of the Aquarian Age of information and by doing this you are becoming part of this process of great positive change that is transforming our thinking and our planet.
5. Before ending say a prayer of gratitude, and visualize or ask for a re-birth miracle (which could include improved health, finance, wisdom or anything of your choosing). Visualize your miracle happening in the present, feel it then let it go.
6. Thank the light, the Angel, the Eagle for assisting in your re-connection. Let it go and open your eyes.
Do this meditation anytime during the day you choose but if you can stay up during the actual lunar eclipse early Tuesday morning it will have extra power. This process has the power to connect you directly with the cosmos during this powerful shift and re-connect you with your life's purpose.
If nothing else use this day to be open and contemplative. From time to time clear your mind, tune into your breath and allow yourself to be more aware of the present moment and see what the universe reveals to you.
HAVE A VERY HAPPY SOLSTICE AND ENJOY THE BEGINNING OF OUR TRANSFORMATION INTO THE "NEW EARTH"
with joy and love...
